i sit in my windowsil and watch the rain run down the glass..i see myself on the other side holding my heart in one hand and my life in the other..i don't want to let go of either but i see the steps i need to climb..i try climbing but only fall..bruising my heart and my life..i step..breathe deep..as i realize one must be left behind..i am scared for my heart is almost whole once more..my life is so precious..so fragile..i climb the steps one by one..i pull myself up with one free hand..i reach my destination and i look back at the once broken heart..i safely tuck my life away and continue on..
